BALI – Ayodya Resort Bali is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Yungenide Bali, a women-owned and women-led creative enterprise committed to empowering women and the younger generation through art, innovation, and cultural preservation. This meaningful collaboration introduces a new cultural and creative dimension to the resort’s guest experience.
Rooted in the philosophy of staying youthful by nurturing creativity, Yungenide—derived from the words “yungen” (young) and “ide” (idea)—was founded by Rara Harris, an artist and cultural advocate who believes in the transformative power of artistic expression, tradition, and women-led innovation.
“Partnering with Yungenide perfectly aligns with our vision of offering not just luxurious accommodation, but also enriching cultural experiences for our guests,” said Vineet Mahajan, General Manager of Ayodya Resort Bali.
“Together, we’re building a platform that celebrates women in business, supports local craftsmanship, and revives the timeless beauty of traditional arts such as Batik.”
As part of the collaboration, guests are invited to participate in interactive Batik-making workshops, guided by skilled artisans. These hands-on sessions provide a unique opportunity to engage with Indonesia’s rich textile traditions while expressing personal creativity.
“I was born in South Sumatra and later moved to Yogyakarta for my studies and work. In 2012, I discovered my passion for Batik,” said Rara Harris, Founder of Yungenide.
“Working closely with local artisans taught me to appreciate the skill, time, and meaning behind every motif. Through Yungenide, I want to share this creative journey—especially with women—so they can realize the power of bringing their ideas to life.”
This initiative reflects Ayodya Resort Bali’s continued commitment to offering inclusive, culturally immersive experiences. Combined with its classic Balinese architecture, family-friendly atmosphere, and evolving lifestyle amenities—such as the upcoming Paintball Bali Arena (Q3 2025) and Nusa Dua’s first professional Padel Club (Q4 2025)—Ayodya is redefining what it means to be a destination for purposeful and meaningful travel in Bali.***
